A scenic scramble

In a tucked-away patch of the Bisti/De-Na-Zin Wilderness called the Egg Garden, nature gives Fabergé a run for his money. High desert winds and intense monsoon rains continually erode these 'eggs' to expose striated patterns of sediment. The effect is so unearthly that the strewn stones are also known as the Alien Egg Hatchery. An eerie title, but here among StarCraft-esque hoodoos and hillocks, it feels apt.
Stoic stones
A strange set of stones
A tale of two lochs
Desert or dessert?
Crags meet agriculture
Fly me to…
The spire of Segla
High views in low places
